Let’s explore why Medical Tracker is loved by primary schools
Money-saving online software for schools
Whether your primary school has 200 or 800 pupils, the cost of paper for bumped-head letters adds up. Medical Tracker is the UK’s leading online incident book, recording all incidents and injuries (including recording mental health concerns) in one place.
Staff-wide awareness of medical conditions
In a large through-primary school, there may be up to 1000 children. All staff need to be aware of allergies and serious injuries or incidents that have occurred throughout the school day.
Medical Tracker’s online cloud-based first aid and health management system, all staff members can be aware of the allergies of the Year 6 pupils even if they are based in Foundation 1.
Support ECTs and supply teachers with SEND pupils
We saw an influx of supply teachers and agency support staff brought into schools during Covid 19 restrictions to cover teacher isolation and absence. Newly qualified teachers (ECTs) and temporary teaching staff can immediately access the one-page profile to see the children’s needs, allergies, or health concerns. The simple search feature can pull up any school-wide allergies in seconds.
Create reports on first aid incidents easily
Primary schools are one of the educational settings that experience the most incidents during playtime and lunchtime. Not through negligence or poor supervision but due to the active nature and physical coordination of the children. Medical Tracker allows for reports to be created easily, to help you to highlight the areas of high incidents and injury and therefore evaluate the current practice.
Monitor areas of health and safety concern
Your Medical Tracker report may show you that your Year 2 classroom is one of the highest incident locations, this may be down to simple environmental factors such as table layout and can be altered immediately, reducing injuries and incidents.
Evaluate the effectiveness of midday supervisor coverage
Wet playtime or lunchtime in a primary school requires careful management to avoid injuries and keep the children entertained. Using the reporting feature, you can see the areas of higher incidents and concern, allowing for targeting midday supervisor training or support.
30 seconds to record an incident
Recording an incident takes 30 seconds, this reduces the length of time first aiders are away from their base classrooms. Avoiding missed interventions and 1:1 support for children with additional needs.
Parents are notified via email immediately
Exiting the building at the end of the school day requires diligence. As the incident reports are sent immediately after the incident and parents are informed of the medical treatment their child received it removes the need for teaching staff to find parents at pick up or phone after school to inform them.
The teacher notified immediately of the incident
Lunchtime can be a busy time for incident reporting. With a large through-primary school it can be challenging for midday supervisors to pass on all information within their paid hours. This can result in teachers being unaware of head injuries, mental health concerns or medication administrated. Medical Tracker notifies the teachers immediately of any recorded incidents via email.
Four-week warning given for expiring medication
Medication can be given daily or just used in an emergency (inhalers), tighten up medical monitoring systems with Medical Tracker’s expiry notifications, informing the school and the parents of the upcoming expiry date of medication.
Parents can confirm medical conditions and medication online
Using Medical Tracker’s Parent Approve functionality, a simple email can be sent to remind parents to confirm their child's current usage of medication, or to authorise the use of medications during school time.
Monitor expiring backup medication
Having a spare inhaler in school is useful in case of emergency, especially on trips offsite (school sports tournaments or class trips). Monitor the expiry of the backup medicine to always be prepared.

Instant access for all staff
Medical Tracker's centralised cloud-based software allows staff to access all your schools' records instantly whether on or offsite. Permission-based access allows you to decide which staff have access to what data.
Standardise data and processes
With school-wide control from your account, you can ensure all data is standardised allowing comparative reports and processes. From email templates for communicating incidents with parents/carers to the drop-down options in ‘treatment administered’ for an injury, you are in control.
It helps me with our site manager and look at health and safety improvements. For example, In technology, the bulk of our injuries were eye injuries and it was through not wearing safety goggles. So we were able to locate what health and safety issues are happening in departments.

It's a really simple solution to a complex problem. I can't think why no one has come up with it before now. It’s also easy to get support and the system is being developed all the time.
